Nelson Shanks' Palette

[Anne Hall]

I have attended three workshops with Nelson and/or his instructors over the past year. For the record, as of January 2002 he cut the number of colors down to 23. He now omits Venetian Red, Perylene red, and yellow ochre.

Peggy Baumgaertner's palette is also 23 colors, though not the same ones. What the two of them have in common is experience studying at the Cape School, in the Hawthorne/Hensche tradition.
